Will try toothpaste. My sudocreme is 20 years old so possibly gone off

He is sadly not squeezable. More angry and hard.

Tomorrow I'll have access to anaesthetic and sharp instruments. If he's not calmed down I could resort to major surgery.

You dont need to calm it down! Get a nice hot flannel on it and post another pic.

Angry is good. That white bit on the top says its ready to be squeezed, I'd say.

How did it go?

Max strength ibuprofen gel stings like a bitch but calmed it down.
No longer throbbing but still large and red.

Aspirin crushed and mixed with a tiny bit of water. Leave it on for as long as you can (I.e at least all night). It's magic

Eurax the itching cream.

I have finally FINALLY got on top of my cystic spots. Salicylic acid which can be found in Boots clear skin (cheapo clearasil lotion)
